Describe the way you chose to live your life in one sentence

Healthy and happy!

What tunes will you be spinning on the Sonos in the GT office?

Florence and The Machine

Describe your three dream dinner party guests and why?

This is hard! There are so many to choose from! But here goes:

  1. David Attenborough – because he has lived an absolutely fascinating life and understands our natural environment so well. I wonder if there is anywhere he hasn’t been, and if so then why. I love travel and I love our natural environment, he is top of my list.
  2. Elon Musk – because he is an interesting thinker and could provide some real insights on where the world is heading in the future. And he is a bit controversial at times and this always injects a bit of life into a dinner party conversation!
  3. Jacinta Arden – because she is paving the way as a new breed of leader in the political scene and is both smart and savvy at a time when there is so much political disillusionment around the world.

What’s your favourite book on business and/or leadership?

Stephen Covey’s ‘7 Habits’ because it had such an impact on me early in my career. It instilled a passion for thinking and acting in a very deliberate way to achieve what I wanted to achieve.
